Would be nice to know what a Kawasaki pad set costs.
I would never consider using 'cheaper' components as safety related parts (brakes)...... in my humble opinion stick to the best and most reputable brands even if they cost more
Just sayin
I feel I should share a bad experience with the D2Moto brand (the sintered full set above, for $28.79).
I had a front pad separate from it's steel backing plate. The immediate result was the brake lever squeezing clear down to the throttle grip with no deceleration. Two quick pumps later (which, in traffic, would have been way too late) I had brakes again, accompanied by a horrible grinding sound and feel. I carefully limped home on back roads w/back brake only. (No linked brakes on my '08)
The experience scared me away from cheap brake pads forever.
I'm betting the EBC prices (above) are for one side only. EBC's are never that cheap.

Complete set would be $159.82.
Thanks, looks like the EBC complete would be $101.18 from Amazon.
My EBCs are quite noisy as well.
Makes no sense to me that I can replace pads and rotors on my Corvette's 4 wheels than I can on my C14's two wheels!!!!
